Amazing safari - Had a wonderful safari at Nairobi National Park! We were lucky to see so many animals—lions with cubs, rhinos, buffalos, giraffes, zebras, and more. Our guide, Watson, was fantastic—super friendly, very informative, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend going with him if you're planning a visit!

Amazing experience, would definitely recommend - From start to finish we really enjoyed the experience. The driver was very helpful, picked us up and dropped us back right at our hotel door. He kept us informed throughout the day, and ensured we had a brilliant safarai experience. Would definitely recommend if you are visiting Nairobi

Fun and knowledgeable tour. - We had a great experience today with Watson as our Guide and Driver. We started with a game drive in Nairobi National Park and then visited the Elephant Orphanage, Giraffe Center, and we had time for a bead factory tour as well. Watson was prompt, an excellent driver and well knowledgeable of the park and its ins and outs, including the animals. We got to see lions, zebras, hippos, giraffes, gazelles, impalas, rhinos, baboons, etc. Highly recommend this tour. Thanks!

Had a great time - The trip was great. Watson, our guide, took extra effort to ensure we saw all the animals and got to take great pictures of them. We also saw the elusive lions! There was a tour guide to help us at the Giraffe Center as well. I had a flight to catch immediately after the experience and Watson ensured I made it back in time as planned.

An Outing Not to Be Missed - A fabulous outing. Watson is THE guide you want to take you exploring. He was knowledgeable, caring and very kind. He is an outstanding driver-- important for the narrow and rutted dirt roads in the park. He helped a fellow drive get out of a ditch. His timing was perfect as we were able to see many animals in the National Park and still make the 11 appointment to see orphaned elephants at the excellent Sheldrick sanctuary. Do not miss taking this tour. It has been the highpoint of my 5 week trip in Africa.

Excellent experience with Watson! - Watson was an excellent guide for our safari! He was very knowledgeable about each of the animals in Nairobi national park and managed to get us close to rhinos, lions, giraffes and baby crocodiles! After the national park we went to the sheldrick elephant orphanage where we got to see the orphan elephants be fed and play in the mud. After that we did lunch and Watson got us to try dawa for the first time which my partner and I loved! We finished the tour with the giraffe center and both got to experience feeding giraffes for the whole time. Throughout everything we had great conversation with Watson about Kenya and his experiences as a tour guide. Would strongly recommend him for anyone considering this tour!

amazing safari - The tour was planned to be picked up and dropped off directly from the hotel in the morning, our tour guide was also the driver. He answered the questions of the tour participants in a warm way, he had a friendly and energetic personality. We also saw the animals called the big 5 in the safari section. It was a wonderful experience to touch the orphaned elephants and hand-feed the giraffes.
